Probably more money and get to play with his brother at Freo. 

I just don’t like it when these things drag on through the season and even though he is saying the right things, there ain’t no signature on paper yet. 

Time will tell. 

Riddle me this (with this non riddle)

What if

Angus takes off

But we have Gone and Got Gaff and whatever we get for Gus....

    I’d rather retain Brayshaw and bring in Gaff.

    It's not the be all and end all if he chases money and goes to Freo to play with his brother. At least he has built up some huge currency. Would have hated to offload him for cheap and then Gus showing what he's doing now over there and we got back peanuts.

    Totally non Melbourne to build up his currency first before leaving

    Maybe the tide has turned

    Oops did I just say that out loud

    I would like to keep Brayshaw and develop him as one of our own stars of the game.

    Sure.

    That goes without saying so I said it anyway playing devil's advocate/I'm being silly again.

    It bears thinking about though.

    (Why hasn't he signed yet)

    Brayshaw won't leave. At the start of the year I thought he was trade bait, midway through the year I thought he was getting plenty of ball but being wasteful, rushed and turning it over badly. Now there's a level of composure and a familiar position to play in given he has regained confidence from his concussion issues.

    He's gonna be a jet and a must keep for our flag tilts.

    Probably look to move on with his midfield mate, Jack Viney.  ☺️

    Its not the be all and end all. I agree. No player is the be all and end all. We have seen that with Danger leaving Adelaide and Buddy leaving Hawthorn. Brayshaw would be a massive loss for us though. Sure, he has built up his currency, but he is trending upwards at such a rate that it is reasonable to assume he improves next year as well. This kid can seriously play, but more than that, he is doing so off the back of re-adjusting the way he goes about attacking the football. Its pretty impressive. Viney had to do it. Brayshaw is doing it. Those type of guys you don't want to let go. If Brayshaw goes to Freo we would need to be looking at getting a player the quality of Cerra in the deal.

    I believe that was an impression of Saty fawning over the other midfielders and commenting on their mod-like attributes.

    Evaluating the worth of Brayshaw both from a dollar and trade viewpoint would be a challenge.

    Interesting to see how it works out and where he fits in the relativity spreadsheet. Just hope North don't come in with a silly offer as they are prone to do.

    Gus deserves the success he is presently having as I am sure we all agree.

    Glad to see some sensible words about Tom Scully. In hindsight many of us over reacted.

    Be surprised if went anywhere..

    Be MORE surprised if Uncle Jimmy's travelling circus doesn't open the cheque book.

    North are an embarrassment of rejection. They'll be keen.

    just the alternate view, but why wouldn't his brothers want to come back and play with him???

    They may want to but they’re currently contracted past this season where Angus isn’t. The media are just chasing a story. Angus to Fremantle currently makes a better story for them.

    I was a little tounge in cheek - and also it was irrespective of contract situations... mostly little bro's follow the big dog in the house :)... or go the complete opposite way of course :) and yer bang on @Ethan Tremblay..whatever sells the papers.

    Well, certainly a far better story than anything about Ross's Freo on field 'achievements' since their GF flop only a few years back!

    Very sensible for Gus to play out the season and up his market value. Imagine if he signed a contract extension at the start of the year versus now. Would be a 200k pay gap...

    Most likely juicing $ from his contract as much as he can before putting pen to paper if he continually proves his consistent form and ability, and rightly so.

    So we may one-day, get Zac Jones to the Dees ? ?

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
